To whom it may concern,
While I support the educational component of the Fair for 4-H students and believe it can go forward safely, the
additional activities of the fair, including the carnival, rodeo, demo derby, music and relays cannot be safely
managed.
What is the responsibility of the Board of Health, the Northwest Montana Fair, and the Flathead County
Commission when Annie Bukacek, member of the Board of Health, is actively encouraging people to reject the
governor’s mask mandate and the health department’s recommendations? Who is liable if there are sickness and
deaths from COVID that are traced to the Fair?
Thank you for your time,
